Hi Paul,
do you have a use case for these operators in mind ? I guess some sort of "an
error has occurred" boolean flag aggregation could profit from that:
boolean errorQ = false
errorQ ||= foo0(...)errorQ ||= foo1(...)errorQ ||= foo2(...)...
if(errorQ) { throw new Exception("some error occurred.. ")}
Cheers,mg

Compound assignment for logic operators
It seems older than that. I guess we decided to follow java and C rather than
Ruby.I suspect we wouldn't want to make an override-able operator for logical
and/or but I see no harm in having the short-hand itself.Anyway, we can look at
it if there is sufficient interest.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi Everyone,
I noticed that the '&&=' and '||=' operators (LOGICAL_AND_EQUAL and
LOGICAL_OR_EQUAL) are partially supported in a few parts of the codebase but
not at the grammar level. Does anyone remember any previous discussion about
those operators?
I don't really remember... did we maybe add it for groovypp?
bye Jochen
